right from where bitcoin started to the all time high, what is the return on investment?
Has anything outperformed it in the past or present?
You have to actually pick a reasonable starting timeframe. From January 3rd 2009 when they were worth nothing to the first trade when they were worth something? No, I doubt anything has bested infinity percent...
And it's probably not reasonable to use the first few recorded trades as a starting point, since the volume was so low. As your start point, maybe pick the first month where total trading volume was over $5M (that's still tiny!) or something...
But to answer your question without being either precise or pedantic, I think during Uber's last raise ($1.2B at a $17B valuation), it was noted that their seed rounds had returned better ROI than bitcoin, and that people couldn't really think of anything else that had.
